Fred Drake e74f8de385 Added an example of a string value for the replacement parameter to 
re.sub().
This closes SF bug #446136.

Fixed description of RE modifiers so that RE{#} and RE{#,} are more
clearly described and disambiguated (plain RE{#} had not been described
at all).  Reported by Jeremy Craven via email.

Fred Drake 895aa9da4c Suggestion from Keith Briggs: refer to RE objects consistently instead of

Andrew:  In description of (?iLmsx), you say it matches the empty string and

 1998-03-08 07:38:27 +00:00

 1997-12-29 21:42:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 78f8e98232 Lots of minor nits that allow this file to get processed without failures by 
the info generation phases.  Most of the errors had occurred in the makeinfo
step.

Commented out the warning at the top; this should still really be removed
before 1.5, but that's not my call.  It generated problems for the info
conversion as well.
 1997-12-29 21:39:39 +00:00
Fred Drake f9951818a6 Normalized the \seetext markup to match the only other instance: should be
